Memorial Day party

No alarm today. We did waken good time and went through both the stretching and slow aerobics tape. Some of the stunts hurt my knee while others hurt my hips. I am beginning to remember which ones hurt before I feel it. We didn’t walk the lake today. We finished cleaning the house. I vacuumed and we put the leaf into the dining table to make room for to 6. We put the hamburgers I cooked the other day into the slow cooker to thaw and finish cooking. I put the bratwurst Evelyn had parboiled yesterday on the old charcoal grill to cook. I also cooked some of a sausage ring we bought last summer. Evelyn set the table and the card table we had set up in the living area. She then went to sleep. I tried to deal with the e-mail until she wakened. Then we tried to get the response to the IRS ready so we don’t have to pay a large penalty. I evidently didn’t report all the income in 2007. I believe that part of the problem was that our major income firm had at least 2 corrections on their forms during that year. We got things together just as the guests for our Memorial Day party began to arrive. We had anticipated 12-13 including us but only 7 of us were here. We had a potluck including potato salad, veggies, corn on the cob, baked beans, and individual key lime pie tarts. We talked until 7:30 when they left. We finished cleaning things up and walked around our loop 3 times to cool off. It was quite warm in the house. The predictions have been for rain from yesterday through the rest of the week. We will see. The Cubs were on TV again. This must be the fifth time this week.
